For those of us who still mail letters from time to time (or even if you don't), now might be a good time to pick up some Forever stamps from the US Postal Service. Rates take a leap from 46 to 49-cents each this weekend, but you can save by getting out and getting the stamps you'll need now.

The price of a stamp is about to skyrocket on Sunday, January 26th and your best way around it is to invest in some Forever stamps before the postage increase.

What do I mean by “skyrocket”? Ultimately, the price of a stamp is only going up by 3-cents… from 46 cents to 49 cents. Doesn’t seem like a big deal, right? Well, percentage-wise, this is a 7% stamp price increase! By buying Forever stamps, you’d save 6 percent!

So the moral of the story is go out and get some forever stamps now and save on the rate hike. The blog notes that this particular rate increase—aside from being bigger than others in recent memory—also comes on the heels of the US Postal Service going back to the Congressional well and asking for permission to increase the cost of mailing even more. Long story short, this weekend is a good time to buy stamps if you do any mailing at all. Hit the link below to read more.
